Lead Engineer – Construction Approach and Safety in Design Power Plant / FEED Assignment period: 1 December 2026–1 December 2027 About the position Solvexis Consult is looking for a senior engineer with a mechanical or equivalent technical background and hands-on experience from power plant or heavy industrial construction. You will support the design and Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) phase by developing the construction approach, installation sequencing and interfaces between mechanical equipment, boilers, structures and the building envelope. Your focus will be to ensure that the design can be built safely and efficiently, with construction methods, access, lifting and safety requirements considered from the outset. You will contribute specialist input to the FEED process; you will not be responsible for producing the full FEED package. This role requires practical construction experience and a documented Danish arbejdsmiljøkoordinator qualification. Experience limited to building heating and ventilation does not meet the technical scope. Responsibilities Develop construction approaches and work sequences for power plant or heavy industrial projects during design and FEED. Define and coordinate interfaces between mechanical equipment, power boilers, pressure systems, piping, structures and the building envelope, including roofs, façades and external enclosure. Assess installation and erection strategies for large components, including lifting concepts, laydown areas and temporary roof or façade openings for boiler installation. Provide constructability input to design decisions, cost estimates and project schedules. Act as the design-phase health and safety coordinator (AMK-P), including safety-in-design reviews, risk assessments and preparation of the preliminary health and safety plan (PSS). Coordinate with engineering disciplines, the client, consultants, suppliers and EPC contractors. Identify technical, safety and execution risks and propose practical mitigation measures. Support a clear, documented handover into detailed engineering and construction. Qualifications and experience We require: A mechanical engineering or marine engineering background, such as maskiningeniør or maskinmester, or an equivalent technical background in energy/process or civil/structural engineering. Significant experience from power plant or heavy industrial construction, ideally involving large industrial boilers, pressure systems, piping and equipment installation. Practical site experience combined with early-stage construction planning experience. A documented arbejdsmiljøkoordinator qualification under Danish rules. Experience coordinating interfaces between mechanical equipment, structural works and building construction. Strong written and spoken communication skills. Experience with building heating and ventilation alone is not sufficient. It is an advantage if you Have previously worked as a design-phase health and safety coordinator (AMK-P). Have contributed to FEED or basic design for thermal energy, biomass, waste-to-energy or combined heat and power (CHP) projects. Have worked for an engineering consultancy or a boiler or power plant supplier. Speak and write Danish. Personal qualities You combine practical site experience with structured planning. You understand how installation sequences and interfaces affect design decisions, and you can explain those requirements clearly to designers and contractors. You take ownership of safety and constructability, identify constraints early and help the project team develop workable solutions. What we offer You will contribute to the early development of an energy project, helping shape how it will be constructed safely and efficiently. Solvexis will support you throughout your assignment with onboarding, administrative assistance and regular follow-up. Employment terms will be agreed based on your qualifications, experience and the assignment conditions. Application Please submit your CV in English and confirm your availability for the assignment period. Your application should clearly describe: Your experience with power plants, industrial boilers and heavy industrial construction. Your responsibilities during design and planning compared with construction and installation. Examples of construction sequencing, installation strategies or multidisciplinary interfaces you have coordinated. Your Danish arbejdsmiljøkoordinator qualification and any AMK-P and/or AMK-B experience.
